Being watched by dozens of pairs of eyes was actually nothing to Ye Wanqing, but the owner of these dozens of eyes was a descendant of the Gu family, and the majority of them were people who stood at the peak of the pyramid of high society.
These people were all used to seeing the weirdness of the shopping mall, their eyes were as sharp as eagles, as if they had a physical entity, causing Ye Wanqing's skin to hurt.
She was a little regretful that she let Gu Jinyuan carry her downstairs. However, at this time, she couldn't reveal the cowardice and let Gu Jinyuan put her down.
Since he had no choice, Ye Wanqing could only bite the bullet and reveal a smirk.
She had specialized in it before, and the curve of her lips was quite perfect. She wouldn't flatter him too much, and she would also be able to convey the false information that she was very easy to get along with.
Downstairs, Gu Jinyuan carried Ye Wanqing to the dining table and sat down.
The Gu family mansion's dining table was very long. It was the kind of oval long table used for medieval foreign court banquets. The table was several meters long and the middle was empty. There were carefully planted flowers on the table.
The chair was covered with a red leather cushion and the edge of the chair was covered with an inch long golden colored bag. Ye Wanqing didn't know if the frame was made of gold or not, but he was completely focused on the silver tableware that was placed in front of him.
The top of the bowl, plate, and chopsticks had extremely exquisite engravings, the workmanship was extremely exquisite, even an outsider like Ye Wanqing who didn't understand anything could faintly feel the expensive price of this set of dining equipment.
However, she controlled her expression and didn't show too much surprise.
She was still a Mrs. Gu, how could others see that she was actually a bumpkin restricted by poverty?
"Jin Yuan, dad isn't here yet, how can you let her sit down first?"
Someone voiced out their doubts, Ye Wanqing wanted to turn his head to see who it was. He bent over and rather considerately stuffed the laced napkin into her clothes and neck, then raised his hand to help her fiddle with it.
His movements were very gentle, and his eyes were also very focused. His fingertip occasionally brushed across her chest, and she felt her scalp go numb. However, she endured it and nodded with a smile. "Thank you!"
"My wife's feet are aching, so she can't stand."
Gu Jinyuan said unyieldingly as he pulled up a chair and sat beside Ye Wanqing. He followed suit and stuffed the napkin into the collar of his shirt, as if he was at home, ignoring everyone else's stares.
Since that person dared to raise doubts, he would naturally not give up just because of one sentence from Gu Jinyuan. He coldly sneered: "Since you can't stand, why do you need that leg? It would be better to just cripple it and not have to stand for the rest of your life! "
Ye Wanqing, "..."
Brother, do you have mania? If you don't like it, you're going to cripple my leg. If Gu Jinyuan deserves a beating, why are you beating him up?
The corner of Ye Wanqing's mouth twitched, and he subconsciously moved his legs together.
Gu Jinyuan ignored him, and brought a fruit plate on the table to Ye Wanqing: "There's still some time before the official banquet, let's eat some fruits to fill the stomach."
That plate of fruit was not made from a random salad dressing. Instead, it was carved with various fruits and peels, forming a flower. Using a frame, it was arranged in an auspicious manner.
The exquisite carving skill made Ye Wanqing have the urge to take out his phone to take a photo, and then add the words' holy shit 'to it and send it to his Moments.
The happiness of rich people was beyond her imagination!
"I'm not hungry yet."
Ye Wanqing laughed and rejected it. The fruit platter was simply too beautiful, she felt that she just needed to look and she would be full.
Gu Jinyuan didn't go along with her reserved performance, he instead took off the phoenix head, fed it into her mouth, and refused to eat it: "It's good for the body to eat more fruits."
When the food was in his mouth, Ye Wanqing naturally did not spit it out. After taking a bite, a sweet and fragrant milk taste bloomed on his taste buds.
The taste was too good, Ye Wanqing could not help but squint his eyes, and enjoy the smell.
It was too delicious!
As a mother, the first thing anyone would think of when they came across something good was their own child.
So the first thing Ye Wanqing did after he finished sighing was to turn around and ask Gu Jinyuan: "Where's Mu Mu and Lin Lin?"
With such a delicious fruit plate, Lin Lin would definitely be especially happy eating it.
Just as he finished asking, before Gu Jinyuan could reply, Ye Chenlin's excited voice came from the door, "Mommy!"
Looking towards the direction of the voice, Ye Chenlin and Gu Zhenmu walked in one after another. The two of them were dressed in white shirts and black suits, their hair had been done especially, they were both handsome little gentlemen.
There were a lot of people in the hall, but they all spontaneously opened up a path. Ye Chenlin did not know how to write the word 'cowardly', so with a thump he ran over to Ye Wanqing's side.
Although he and Gu Zhenmu were dressed exactly the same, but the difference in personality was too huge, allowing everyone to immediately recognize him.
"Is this the child who has always been outside? They look too similar. "
"What's the use of light if it looks like it? You don't have any manners, and yet you know how to shout and act like this? "What a pity!"
Some people whispered to each other, but they did not lower their voices for Ye Wanqing to hear clearly.
They didn't care about Ye Wanqing's feelings in the slightest. Their intention was to humiliate Ye Wanqing and also wanted to test out how much Gu Jinyuan valued him highly.
Ye Wanqing did not care about their humiliation, but he could not tolerate them pointing fingers at him.
She wiped the nonexistent strawberry juice from her lips with a napkin, smiled, and looked across the crowd at the two men who had just spoken.
The man was dressed in a suit and looked to be in his early forties, while the woman was wearing a blue skirting dress that covered her chest. She was only about twenty years old, and the two of them looked like father and daughter.
I was born poor and didn't have a good education, but I know of a principle behind all this. In ancient times, people were known as long-tongued women, and after death, they would go to hell and get their tongues hooked. The etiquette of the Gu family is very strict.
After Ye Wanqing finished speaking, he gracefully picked off a fruit and gave it to Ye Chenlin.
In terms of support, with Gu Jinyuan here, she was not afraid of anyone. In terms of eloquence, she was extremely embarrassed.
She was a person who could suffer any grievances. Once a child was involved, she would turn into a hedgehog. Whoever dared to touch her would get their hands covered in blood!
The two men's faces changed, as though they never thought that Ye Wanqing would have the confidence to face them head on.
Just as she was about to speak again, Gu Zhenmu, Wen Tuntun walked to Ye Chenlin's side and sat down. She raised her eyes and looked at the two people indifferently, "Second Uncle, Cousin Sister, how is Lin Lin, Daddy should be worried about this. It has nothing to do with you two."
Gu Zhenmu had inherited one hundred percent of his personality, the moment he opened his mouth, he would become extremely angry.
The middle-aged man was more experienced, and was barely able to keep his composure. The woman, however, was unable to endure and pointed angrily at Gu Zhenmu: "What do you mean by 'it has nothing to do with us'? Gu Zhenmu, is this how you speak to your elders? "
